skyrimb16_ESO6

This was a great idea to schedule downtime of the Europe server in Europe prime time. Cannot login into the game for more than 1 hour already!

Grats to my previous poster... seems if it´s not your problem it does not matter.
I hope you will never encounter someone like you when you need help.

On topic:
Had the same problem.
After 20 minutes of waiting I watched a movie.
Now I can log in without typing in the "security" code...

No playtime for me today... I am really glad I begged a friend to let me subscribe with his PayPal so I could play my "free" 30 days without beeing able to login after work until now. At least they did not rip off 13 € from me to do that.
As I have to wake up in 8 hours from now this nonsense cost me my first day of playtime I paid for.

What some of you need to realise with this is that unless you set a static IP within your router or modem, it can reset itself at any time - giving your network a new identifier.

This isn't usually a problem because usually, it is the hostname that is checked, such as when I log into other games, it tells me I logged in from xxxxx.xxxxxx.powersurf.li so and so hours or days ago. Why ESO fails here is that they read your dynamic (constantly refreshing) IP address and act disproportionately on this information. This is what happens when you have kids that don't understand networking running a massive MMO.

Either that or they should be storing the IP address of your DNS servers - but this would be less secure since everyone on a single provider would probably have the same DNS information. So yeah, hostnames would be ESO's best friend if kids weren't managing the servers.

Well i wanted to play. Guess i should get my cat from the *** snipper, i had a free hour. Its new just be calm everyone, there are plenty of other things to go do

Edit: Lol b a llz got censored. Edit 2: now its not LOL

per.t.pettersenb16_ESO

they should atleast extend the validation of the email code to a few hours until their over worked postman get the job done..

TheeCandyMan

I submitted a help e-mail to Bethesda's customer service, not that it will help...

Quite frustrating to be told "NA server is up!" only to get stuck with this.

Edit - Can't make this *** up, I posted this and INSTANTLY got a "First comment badge!" email from ESO. NOW I'm just a bit ticked off. Are you *** kidding me?

Sturmlied

Same Issue here. I was able to login earlier without authorization but got disconnected.... now I am stuck.

And why the hell do I need to re-authorize a computer I played with since day one of the early access?

DjDPE

Same prob. here untrusted computer

mjkvanbeekeb17_ESO

Well the code worked, but I still can't log in.

Login timeout or unknown error
